IT'S WAITING FOR YOU RIGHT ROUND THE CORNER

Under cloudy skies and muggy air Pheebs and I headed out for Clinton Ontario first thing this morning.  A Class B+ already at the dump station so we cruised around until they left.  Having added water to both the gray and black tanks aforehand I just wanted to do a dump and make sure everything was working properly.  It all came off without a hitch.  Better to know of any problems here with nobody around than to have a dump disaster with other people in close proximity.  And we've all had our share of dump disasters at one time or another.  If you haven't had a dump disaster yet, you probably will.  It's waiting for you just right round the corner and it will happen when you least expect it.  Good luck with that eh:))
THIS FARM COMBINE 'WHEAT HEAD' LOADED ON ITS TRANSPORTATION TRAILER IS READY TO BE HAULED OFF TO THE NEXT WHEAT FIELD TO BE HARVESTED
THESE LARGE TRUCK TRAILERS WAIT TO BE LOADED WITH WHEAT AS SOON AS THIS FIELD IS CUT
THESE RAKED UP ROWS OF STRAW AWAIT THE BALING MACHINE
AND HEY ITS NOT EVERY SUBURBANITE WHO HAS A SHINY RED AND YELLOW MASSEY HARRIS TRACTOR IN THEIR DRIVEWAY
From Clinton, Pheebs and I took the long way home through the little hamlet of Ben Miller.  Soooooo pleased with the way this little 24' Winnebago drives.  Lots of power and it's not sluggish in the hills.  Yes I know it's not towing anything and it's riding empty, but still I sense the power in it.  This would be a great little rig in the mountains.  Looking forward to future travels wherever they may be.
STILL SOME DOWNED TREES REMAIN TO BE CLEANED UP AFTER HIGH WINDS AND TORNADOS SWEPT THROUGH OUR AREA A WEEK AGO SUNDAY
AN OLD TREE STUMP ACTS A CORNER POST FOR WHAT LOOKS LIKE AN ELECTRIC FENCE
Home again the heat and humidity soon drove me inside where I spent most of the afternoon catching up on some R&R.  Reading and Reclining.  If it gets any more exciting around here I'm going to have to get myself a program director.
THERE'S 'CHIPPY' ON AN OLD WAGON WHEEL IN OUR FRONT YARD
GROANER'S CORNER:(( College Exam Plea::
O Lord, hear my anxious plea
Calculus is killing me
I know not of 'dx' or 'dy'
And probably won't until the day I die.
Please, Lord, help me in this hour
As I take my case to the highest power.
I care not for fame or loot
Just help me find one square root.
And Lord, please let me see
One passing mark in organic chemistry.
Oh such a thing I constantly dread
I'd just as soon join the Marines instead.
Lord, please give me a sign
That you've been listening all the time.
Please lead me out of this constant coma
And give me a shot at my diploma.

Two years after my heart attack, I was teaching my college course when I felt discomfort in my chest. I paused the class to pop my medication and felt better quickly.
“Now, if I ever do have a heart attack,” I told my students, “I will give extra credit to whoever gives me CPR.”
One of them shouted out, ”How much extra credit?”

  1. That little chipmunk sure came out sharp and clear. I could see his toenails. They are talking about a vaccine by the end of the year. Have my fingers crossed.

  2. Testing and getting familiar with black and grey is a great idea. I had my own bad mistake with a black tank many moons ago when I was 26 years old. Learned my lesson with that subject. I love those pics of the 29 line ground squirrel as I call them.
